The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 407 The Battle of Dangyang ([-])

Early the next morning, Guan Yu did not go into battle in person, but let Guan Ping lead the attack alone.

Zhou Tai and Xu Sheng stood on the city and immediately discovered the situation.

Zhou Tai pointed at the Jingzhou Army and said with a smile, "It's like Guan Yu used to be the most powerful and mighty man in China. After returning from the defeat in Nanyang, he has now become a toothless tiger. He doesn't even dare to fight."

Xu Sheng was not as arrogant as Zhou Tai, he said: "General Zhou, Guan Yu is very good at fighting, we must not be too careless."

Zhou Tai just curled his lips, and didn't take Xu Sheng's words seriously at all. He was already dreaming in his heart that he could kill Guan Yu with his own hands, and then he would become famous all over the world.

Then, Zhou Tai turned around and went down to the top of the city, and ordered 5000 troops to go out of the city to fight Guan Ping.Just like yesterday, the two fought more than [-] times before the battle. Guan Ping was really brave and showed no signs of timidity.But when the two sides fought to sixty points, Guan Ping's saber technique became a little messed up.

Zhou Tai was overjoyed and stepped up his offensive immediately.When Guan Ping reached the 3000th rendezvous, he was already in a state of exhaustion.He quickly turned around and ran back, and the [-] people he brought also ran for their lives in the rear.

Zhou Tai laughed three times, and once again commanded his troops to pursue and kill him.

Seeing Zhou Tai attacking again, Xu Sheng frowned again, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

After Zhou Tai's men chased him for thirty miles, they found that the place where Guan Yu had originally made his camp was now empty.Zhou Tai was overjoyed, Guan Yu actually withdrew his troops!
Now Zhou Tai became more unscrupulous, and led his troops to pursue Guan Ping closely, and entered a mountainous area before he knew it.

At this time, Zhou Tai's men and horses had already chased for sixty or seventy miles, the soldiers were exhausted, and the enemy had disappeared, presumably scattered into the mountains.Zhou Tai had no choice but to send an order to let everyone rest in place.

But just when Wu Jun was sitting on the ground to rest, a rush of gongs suddenly sounded from the four states. The clanging sound was mixed with the sound of rushing, echoing in the mountains, which shocked them all.

Zhou Tai discovered that his troops had entered a small valley.There are high hillsides on both sides of this place, and there are only two exits at the front and back.At this time, banners and banners were flying on the hillsides on both sides, and Guan Yu's army was full of battles.

Zhou Tai's heart trembled, knowing that he had been tricked, Guan Yu's army must have surrounded the whole place!He immediately issued an order to let his army retreat quickly.But when they came to Taniguchi, they suddenly found that Taniguchi had been sealed by huge stones.

It's too late for Zhou Tai to regret now - he is in a desperate situation now, and there is no way out at all.At this time, Guan Yu only needs to give an order, and after countless rockets are shot down, the ground will immediately become a sea of ​​flames.

But Zhou Tai's prediction seems to be wrong.After Guan Yujun shouted and shouted just now, he just surrounded the place firmly, and did not take any further actions after that.This immediately made Zhou Tai feel very strange.

Guan Ping was standing on the top of the mountain right now, and he could clearly see everything that happened below.Guan Ping couldn't help showing a smug smile, what he wants now is not only Zhou Tai's troops, but also Xu Shengjun who is aiming at Dangyang City!

Of course, this clever plan was not thought up by Guan Ping, but was arranged by Guan Yu.

In Dangyang City, Xu Sheng soon got the news that Zhou Taijun was besieged by the enemy, and his worries finally became reality.Xu Sheng couldn't help feeling annoyed that Zhou Tai was too conceited, and now that he was healed, he was besieged in a mountainous area, and he couldn't help himself every day.

But when Xu Sheng was angry, he was angry, but Zhou Tai had to save him.After all, the two had served Jiangdong together for many years, and Zhou Tai was Sun Quan's favorite minister. In order to save Sun Quan, he suffered dozens of wounds on his body and almost failed to save him.

In desperation, Xu Sheng had no choice but to hand over the city defense to the deputy general Zhou Xun, and he gathered 3000 troops and went straight to the place where Zhou Tai was besieged.

Guan Yu was waiting for Xu Sheng to go out of the city to rescue Zhou Tai. He had already set another trap for Xu Sheng at a place thirty miles outside Dangyang City.

Guan Yu's scout captain quickly sent him the exact news that Xu Sheng led his army out of the city.Guan Xing was overjoyed and asked, "How many troops did Xu Sheng take out of the city?"

The scout captain replied: "According to the investigation, there should be between 4000 and [-] people."

Guan Yu nodded and said: "You immediately send someone to monitor the whereabouts of Xu Sheng's army all the way. You must find out the enemy's soldiers and horses and report back at any time."

After the scout captain took the order, he ran out immediately.

Then, Guan Yu issued an order to Zhou Cang and Zhao Lei, saying: "I will leave this place to you two. I will leave 6000 troops for you, and I will take the rest away."

Zhou Cang wondered: "Junhou, you are not here now, where are you going?"

Guan Yu smiled and looked in the direction of Dangyang City.

Xu Sheng led three thousand soldiers and horses to start a rapid march. He was a resourceful general, but at this time, because the matter was too urgent, he unknowingly lost his due vigilance.

Xu Sheng's army came to Tunshan.Tunshan is not a big mountain, and the terrain is not dangerous at all, but the 6000 troops used to hide Zhou Cang and Zhao Lei are definitely enough.

Xu Sheng looked at the surrounding environment and felt that something was wrong.But he didn't know what went wrong for a while, so he just let the troops move on.

Just when most of Xu Sheng's troops entered Tunshan, a burst of cannons suddenly rang out from all around.On both sides of Tunshan, Zhou Cang and Zhao Lei led 3000 troops each, and suddenly rushed out.

Xu Sheng was shocked, and finally realized that not only Zhou Tai was caught in the trick, but he was also caught in the trick.He immediately commanded the army to fight, but the opponent came here with intentions, and they fought in a hurry, how could they stop the enemy's charge?
Less than half an hour later, Xu Sheng's army was defeated by Zhou Cang and Zhao Lei's army.In desperation, Xu Sheng had no choice but to lead the remaining less than a thousand troops and retreat towards Dangyang City.

Of course, Zhou Cang and the two would not let Xu Sheng go, and immediately led the army to pursue.

Almost at the same time, Guan Ping's army launched a fire attack on Zhou Tai's army.For a moment, a flame ignited in the valley, and the screams of Wu soldiers resounded through the sky...

When Xu Sheng returned to Dangyang City, he was really a dog in mourning.But what made him feel strange was that half of the figure disappeared from the top of Dangyang city, even the flag disappeared, and the city gate was closed tightly.

Seeing Zhou Cang and Zhao Lei's pursuers approaching, Xu Sheng couldn't help feeling anxious.He shouted to the city: "Open the door, open the door quickly, we are back!"

Suddenly, there was a commotion from the top of the city, and countless figures appeared, even the flags that had not been seen before were erected.

But what made Xu Sheng dumbfounded was that all the captured soldiers at the top of the city were wearing the uniforms of the Jingzhou Army, and the banners they were flying were also of the Jingzhou Army!
At this time, Guan Yu's tall and burly body appeared.He stroked his long beard triumphantly, and said with a smile: "Little Xu Sheng, your Dangyang City has already been taken by this Marquis!"

Xu Sheng exclaimed, he didn't dare to answer any more, so he had to lead the defeated army to flee to the south of Jiangling City.Guan Yu immediately sent troops to continue chasing and killing Xu Shengjun, but they failed to catch up and they fled back to Jiangling City.

Zhou Tai's side was also considered lucky.In the end, he found out the valley through a trail in the mountain, and recovered his old life.But among the 5000 people he accompanied, fewer than 300 survived.

Guan Yu's battle once again frightened the Jiangdong Army!
